Maybe you would mistaken me that am torn between two guys, no. Actually, this story was my girl cousin's.
My cousin has a bf, who is my best ever friend. He really is, though we actually have a history with each other, too. Neah, it din't reach to a point that we had a relationship, mutual understanding? I don't know.
Anyways, cutting the story short, they fight over and over again because of petty nonsense stuff. My best friend was triggered with my cousin's selfishness , jealousy and insecurities, so he broke up with her.
Of course, both of them confide with me, and am torn.
Good thing, I am neutral. My cousin is wrong and I could not blame my best friend breaking up with her.
I have taken both their sides and I see no point of my cousin's insecurities and jealousy, so I told my best friend to stand with his decision and let my cousin realize her mistakes.
After some time, my cousin talked to me and decided to get back with my best friend and learned what she did.
Right now, they got back together and hopefully they really will.

It is very hard being the person in the middle or two friends. It seems that you handles everything well, but in the future if it were to happen again maybe you should just tell them that you don't want to be in the middle and for them to work out their problems on their own. You don't want to be the one to be blamed by either side if something goes south. You may be theone in the middle with no friends.
